In the evening, after Xie Zhichan took a bath in the bathroom, he asked Mai Sui to get a copper pig chamber pot and carried it into the bedroom.
Pei Yi was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. When he heard Xie Zhichan's footsteps, he opened his sleepy eyes and saw what she was holding. He was still a little dazed and asked, "Why did you bring a chamber pot in? Can I stand up at night?"
Xie Zhichan placed the chamber pot on the footrest at the end of the bed, and took out a rubber tube from her sleeve. On it was a small trumpet-shaped cover. She placed it at the head of Pei Yi's bed and said, "You have to lie prone until at least tomorrow morning. You can change positions only after your wounds have started to heal."
Pei Yi immediately regained consciousness and asked, "What if I want to go to the toilet? Even if you give me a chamber pot, I can't do it while lying on my stomach."
Xie Zhichan picked up the thing that had just been placed on his bedside, gestured and said, "Use this tube, connect one end to Xiao Pei and the other end to the urinal. Just lift your body slightly and it will be done."
Pei Yi took a while to realize who "Xiao Pei" was, and his face immediately turned red like the morning sun. Xie Zhichan said, "If you have any more questions, wake me up and I will help you."
Pei Yi immediately refused: "No! I can do it myself!"
Xie Zhichan suddenly thought of what happened after Pei Yi said these words in this tone last time, and immediately advised in the tone of an old doctor: "You are my patient now. I have collected your consultation fee and nursing fee. It is my responsibility to take care of you."
Pei Yi really didn't like Xie Zhichan's businesslike manner, and if he had a clear boundary with him, he would stop talking immediately. Anyway, he would not ask her for help.
Xie Zhichan then crawled into the bed and lay down under the quilt.
She closed her eyes and thought about Pei Jingyu's pulse which she had accidentally felt during the day, and also remembered the look on the girl's face when she timidly gave her a gift just so that she could take care of her brother. She suddenly felt that there were some things she still had to tell Pei Yi.
She sat up from the bed again, put a pillow behind her and leaned against it, and said to Pei Yi: "I supported Jingyu during the day and accidentally felt her pulse. I have some findings that I want to tell you."
Pei Yi knew something was wrong, and looked at her and said, "What did you find? Just tell me directly, I believe you."
Xie Zhichan thought to herself, this suspicious bastard is pretending to trust her completely at this moment, so she doesn't believe what he says. However, she doesn't care and just thinks of it as helping Jingyu.
She told everyone what she had discovered: "I suspect Jingyu was poisoned. This poison will affect a girl's development. If she misses the best time to remove the poison and regulate her body, she will be infertile for life."
When Pei Yi heard the words "lifelong infertility", he immediately asked Xie Zhichan, "Can you cure this poison? Can Jingyu's body be restored?"
Xie Zhichan nodded: "I can help her detoxify. But, do you know who did it? I found that the poison in her body penetrated slowly, not all at once. If she is detoxified but not on guard, she may be infected again."
Pei Yi immediately thought of the days when he was drugged and fell into a coma after returning home. His face was gloomy as he said, "Except for Lin, there would be no one else who could be responsible for this."
After a pause, he continued, "After my mother passed away, my eldest sister married far away, and I couldn't often walk around the harem. I thought my military achievements would be the confidence of my eldest sister and third sister, at least they wouldn't be bullied. I didn't expect Lin to be so vicious, extending her hatred for my mother to the three of us. Not only did she drug me when I returned home seriously injured, hoping to get my father to appoint Song Ge'er as the crown prince, she actually wanted to make my third sister infertile for life and have a bumpy marriage!"
Xie Zhichan didn't know about the old disputes with the late princess, and asked curiously, "Why does Lin hate the late princess so much? After all, the late princess was married to your father by the emperor's order."
Pei Yi recalled the past, "Before the emperor issued an edict to grant the marriage, my father had already promised Lin's father that he would marry his daughter as a princess. Because of my mother, Lin had to be a concubine for many years. That's why Lin hated my mother and felt that she had taken her rightful place."
When he talked about the late princess, his tone unconsciously became much gentler. Xie Zhichan was an orphan in her previous life, and in this life she had an adopted mother and a foolish father who appeared after she reached adulthood. She had very little family affection, but she had long since developed an open-minded mentality and would not expect anything if she didn't have one.
But seeing Pei Yi's longing for his mother, he still felt a little yearning. Looking at Pei Yi's handsome and flawless face, he said, "The late princess must have been a great beauty."
Pei Yi hummed, and said, "My mother was recognized as the most beautiful woman in Shangjing. After she married my father, although she was not loved by him, he still gave her the honor that a concubine of the King of Yan should have."
Xie Zhichan thought of something and shook his head, "I don't think the prince disliked the late princess. He probably hasn't realized it himself."
Pei Yi was startled and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Xie Zhichan smiled and said, "If he didn't care about the late princess, he wouldn't have agreed immediately when I asked to bring the tablet of the late princess to the main seat in the hall on the wedding day. It's a bit taboo to be worshipped together with a tablet, but the prince didn't. It shows that in his heart, he always remembers that your mother is his wife."
Pei Yi thought about it and didn't comment. If this was true, then my mother's life would not have been in vain.
He was silent for a moment, thinking of Jingyu's matter, and then said, "Can you help Jingyu quietly? Don't tell her about this, she is timid, I'm afraid she will be scared."
Xie Zhichan thought for a moment and said, "No problem. We have to slowly remove the poison from her body. I will make the medicine into sugar pills and give them to her secretly when the time comes. She can eat them as snacks."
The gloom on Pei Yi's face faded a lot. He looked up at Xie Zhichan and said, "Thank you. That girl is most afraid of taking medicine because it is too bitter. Your method is perfect for her."
After a pause, his tone turned cold and he said, "I will find a way to warn Lin."
Xie Zhichan said "OK", and then thought of Aunt Yang for no reason, and said casually: "There are too many women in the back house, which is really troublesome. Not only is it troublesome, but it can also cost lives."
Pei Yi felt relieved now that Pei Jingyu's problem could be solved. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Are you hinting to me that I can't take concubines in the future?"
Xie Zhichan stared at Pei Yi for a while and said, "What does it have to do with me whether you take a concubine or not? However, since you are my patient, I will give you a piece of advice. Don't mess with women. Don't offend women, especially jealous women. Look at Aunt Yang and Lin. They will really go crazy."
Pei Yi thought: That’s not as scary as you holding a knife and trying to cut Xiao Pei.
He looked at Xie Zhichan's confident expression and radiant charm, and recalled what Danfeng had investigated about Xie Zhichan's past: she was timid and cowardly, and was often bullied by the old women on the farm. Moreover, she didn't know any medical skills before she went to the Northern Frontier military camp last year.
He suddenly moved his head a little closer to Xie Zhichan, and asked, "Speaking of which, the Crown Prince's wife's medical skills are so advanced, where did she learn them from?"
Xie Zhichan looked at Pei Yi for a while, thinking that this dog was suspicious again and was trying to find out about her. She blinked and said, "Before my maternal grandfather and his family were exiled, they sent a lot of medical books to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion. I brought a lot of them to the farm. You may not believe it, but I can learn those medical books at a glance. You also know that my maternal grandfather was the former director of the Imperial Hospital, and the ancestors of the Hang family have been practicing medicine for generations. I guess I was born to be a doctor."
Pei Yi asked again: "Then why did you suddenly start learning medicine only last year?"
Xie Zhichan replied, "If you don't have confidence in your own abilities, you must hide your abilities to avoid making a fool of yourself. It's only after you've gone to the Northern Frontier and proven your abilities that you dare to show off a little."
Pei Yi then asked: "Then why don't you want others to know about your treatment process?"
Xie Zhichan thought about it, then suddenly lowered his head and approached Pei Yi, smiling sweetly, and said, "I'm afraid that the way I use my magic will scare ordinary humans like you!"
Nonsense, if I were to watch myself being pulled into a room thousands of years in the future in the blink of an eye, facing a bunch of cold machines, I would be scared to death. When I wake up, I would think she was a monster.
Suddenly, Pei Yi had an idea that the little fox might really be a fox fairy.
